I can damn sure say I do not want an E-Bike. But I will also admit when the time comes if that is what I have to do to keep enjoying riding, I'll get an E-Bike.
But the most important thing here is you did this so you can keep enjoying something you love with someone you love and there is not a thing wrong with that.
